Thank you for the info.

From what I have been able to fine after hearing about Milestone and Grazon (Aminopyralid) a couple of years ago, they have not been found to be teratogenic or cancer causing. Some sensitive individuals in the studies of various animals did have a reaction to the deliberate exposure by...

Actually, we considered many things, including genetics, plant toxins, human made chemicals, etc. All the medical books and people consulted ruled out plant toxins, because animals that were not grazing animals were affected. They ruled out genetics, because so many vertebrates of several groups...

Only if you want many bird species to decline even faster than they are now. DDT made the egg shells soft so they broke resulting in no young. It almost killed me when I was 8 years old and my mother sprayed it inside of our house. No thank you on using DDT! That is funny, Simme. Obviously, you...

It can be bad if it is affecting lots of animals, although decreasing the fertility of humans would be good.

Research scientists and medical books say that if a LARGE NUMBER of mammals species suddenly are born and even greater numbers of birds are hatched with the exact same birth defect at the same time, it has to be environmental, not genetic. Also, a large number of children were born with an...

If there are lots of Barn Swallows, that is usually seen as a good thing because of all the mosquitoes they eat.

I just said that there should be a total ban on the three most used top teratogenic pesticides that are reported to be causing drastic declines in invertebrates and vertebrates, all of which humans need for their survival. Those three, imidacloprid, glyphosate and chlorothalonil, are also...

I admire your knowledge concerning prescription drugs and how to use them to help cattle and also how you share your knowledge with others. Most of the prescription drugs you talk about were not being produced when I had livestock. Likely you nor the people you know have ever looked at the bite...

The study done at the South Dakota State University that put imidacloprid in the drinking water of pregnant white-tailed deer found the fawns that had birth defects or that died had the highest levels of imidacloprid in their spleens. They weren't looking for any specific item. They wanted to...

Only one reason for Weak Calf Syndrome has ever caused an underdeveloped premaxillary bone - that is exposure to imidacloprid. There were likely no calves with underbite even being born prior to 1995. I was a 4-H cattle judge and we checked the bite on all animals as well as hooves, etc. back in...

Scientists say that toxins are the cause of Weak Calf Syndrome. All of the calves that had been diagnosed with Weak Calf Syndrome that I helped my neighbor with, had an underbite. That was one of the birth defects that researchers found on fawn deer when their mothers were deliberately exposed...

Very low levels of hormone disrupting pesticides can effect the progesterone level in the female grazing animals, resulting in them not becoming pregnant, even if they are bred by viable males. So hormone disrupting pesticides can seriously affect both males and females.

That is because it is still a problem now. White-tailed deer examined by researchers who were picking up carcasses to put in front of cameras to photograph eagles and other animals eating the dead deer found a 35% prevalence of ectopic testicles in 2019. When the testicles are between the skin...

You are correct and brilliant - not puzzled at all! All of North America is receiving high levels. Some individuals are less sensitive than others. While glyphosate was found in 93% of the 131 human urine samples tested at an average level of 3.096 parts per billion (PPB) that is not enough to...

In 1994, an insecticide, imidacloprid, began being widely used on food crops grown for humans and their domestic animals. It is made with synthetic nicotine, so it is called a neonicotinoid. Very importantly, imidacloprid was never applied anywhere until the growing season of 1994. Unfortunately...

Well, that is how many cattle were reported to be killed by wolves in Montana last year. Even if it was 500, that would not be a drop in the bucket compared to the number of cattle that are killed by exposure to toxins, both plant toxins and man made toxins combined.

Since you just said calves, I was not sure which species to which you were referring. Actually, simultaneous exposure to high levels of imidacloprid, chlorothalonil and glyphosate in food, water and air appears to affect wild and domestic grazing animals similarly. In a study concerning elk...

There are literally thousands of studies concerning how the three most used top teratogenic pesticides seriously affect everything from a small insect to a human newborn or other larger mammal, like white-tailed deer. Imidacloprid kills invertebrates and vertebrates. Glyphosate is deadly to...

Here in Montana, 3 of every 100 calves dies of Weak Calf Syndrome. That is between 10,000 and 20,000 dead calves per year. WCS is reportedly caused by the pregnant cow ingesting toxins. The toxins that cause WCS can be plants or toxins made and used by people. The ranchers are not reimbursed...
